Abstract (en)

Methods and systems for transferring information to a device include assigning a unique identifier to a device and generating a unique key for the device. The device is located at a first site, and the unique identifier is sent from the device to a second site. The unique key is obtained at the second site, and it is used for encrypting information at the second site. The encrypted information is sent from the second site to the device, where it can then be decrypted.
